Since its founding in 2004, Silvus Technologies. "Silvus" has become the leading developer of complex wireless IP technologies that are expected to reshape broadband wireless connectivity worldwide. Backed by an unmatched team of PhDs and design engineers, its technologies enable a unique approach to enhance the performance of broadband wireless. Silvus' broadband wireless IP solutions provide; enhanced wireless data throughput, wireless interference mitigation, advanced MIMO technology - up to 4x4, anti-jamming via spatial cancellation and Quality of Service (QoS) improvement for support of wireless HD video transmissions.

As a successful business entity, Silvus is self-funded and already cash flow positive and is growing.

The Value Proposition for Solving this Problem

Current IEEE 802.11a/g WLANs operate with raw data rates up to 54M bit/sec with actual throughputs closer to 20M bit/sec. Although fine for many applications, future applications are demanding even a higher throughput. Applications that demand higher data rates, such as HDTV (720p up to 1080i) and streaming video require wireless data throughput rates of 100M bit/sec and higher. Achieving this throughput within the constraints of the unlicensed band requires improvements in the physical layer (that is, the raw data rate) and the efficiency of the medium access control (MAC) layer, such that the throughput is closer to the raw data rate. Throughput in excess of 100M bit/sec in 20 MHz to 40 MHz of bandwidth that will be operational in a real world environment is a very challenging engineering task. The need for high speed wireless broadband data throughput with a high level of Quality of Service (QoS) has lead Silvus to develop leading edge broadband wireless IP solutions. For the past four years Silvus has been at the forefront of introducing these IP based solutions into military tactical communication systems. This culminated in the company being chosen as the sole performer on the multi million, multi -year DARPA 'Mobile Networked MIMO (MNM)' program. These awards have allowed the company to be in first mover position with respect to advanced broadband wireless - specifically the latest WiFi standard, 802.11n. Silvus' broadband wireless IP solutions provide; enhanced wireless data throughput, wireless interference mitigation, advanced MIMO technology - up to 4x4, anti-jamming, spatial cancellation and improvement of Quality of Service (QoS.)

All of this means that Silvus' broadband wireless IP solutions can be directly applied to today's commercial broadband systems such as (WLAN, WiMax, etc.). These solutions ultimately will provide the Quality of Service (QoS) and throughput that can support over-the-air demands for 802.11n and wireless HD video transmissions in real world deployments.
